Frosty the Snowman. Must. Die.
I hated it as a child, and have only detested it more as I've grown up. I fantasize about frinding an AK-47 and shooting any snowman I see, but with my luck, some kid would be behind it. Not that it ever snows before Christmas here. *shudder* Hate. It.
And why do radio stations play a song mangled by one celebrity, then 10 minutes later play the same song mangled by another? The only good reason is to avoid playing the above mentioned song from hell or the donkey song!

DITTO. Doesn't matter who it's sung by, it's a STUPID song.

One of our stations (3WS for yinzers) has banned Dominick, the Hippo song, etc this year and some people are actually complaining.

The one that has always annoyed me is The Little Drummer Boy. Can't stand it!

I hate all traditional carols that are performed and people omit any reference to Jesus. WTF the holiday is Christ Mass for a reason.

I didn't know that! Are they trying to make up for the hachet job on Jim & Theresa?

You mean the holy day is Christ Mass. If we're breaking down words.
Christmas Shoes.
And then the "Last Christmas, I gave you my heart." song.

Well, if we're really breaking words down, the holy day is Christ 's Mass ( Cristes mǣsse in Old English).

Charlotte Symphony invited a guy to sing with us, and he sang You're a Mean One, Mr. Grinch. Not only was he a tenor, but he did it in the style of Jim Carry, and forgot the words half the time. I would just about hold my breath from downbeat to fine just waiting for disaster. One performance, the conductor had to call out a measure number to get everybody back with the singer after he skipped a bunch. I now hate that song.

Ahh!
"Last Christmas, I Gave You My Heart."
BAH. ICK. NOOOOOOOOOOO!
I lived abroad for a couple of years in a non-English-speaking country, which was nice, as it spiced up the Christmas carol repertoire, so you would think you'd finally be free of all the bad ones--BUT NO, the Wham! version of that song was EVE-RY-WHERE-UH!!!
And now, the place I work plays not one, but two versions of it in our holiday music mix. Shudder...
